Ochlodes siva yuchingkina Murayama & Shimonoya, 1963

Tyô to G a 13(3): 53.

Labels : “ Taiwan, Tsugitakayama (= Xueshan, in Chinese character)/ June 1961,” “ Ochlodes /siva/yuchingkina/ HOLOTYPE.”

A male specimen was designated as the holotype by Murayama & Shimonoya (1962), and the specimen was retrieved in the Shimonoya collection ( Figs. 7–9 View FIGURES 1–18 ).

Having examined the male genitalia, Chiba & Hsu (1989) indicated that yuchingkina is not a subspecies of siva Moore, 1878 , but of bouddha Mabille, 1876 . Subsequent publications follow this view ( Chiba et al. 1992, Chiba & Tsukiyama 1996, Hsu 2013, Hsu et al. 2019). We regard yuchingkina as a subspecies of O. bouddha .
